I was crossing my fingers for the master bedroom today as I reorganised the wardrobes and drawers last night and have been left with piles of stuff everywhere.
Waiting for the bin and the recycling box to be emptied today so that I can fill them again and after taking a load of stuff up the attic now have a pile more to go up, grr! Will really, really, really have to get on sorting out up there as well as beginning to have visions of the ceiling falling in with the weight of all the stuff up there!

Pigpen Glad to see you had a nice time! Don't stop saying yes if it gets you sneaky hot chocolates!!!
Embb Hope you gas man arrives on time*giggles* and he makes sure you stay nice and...hot...
Once again, DS2 was sick last night in his bed. Changed everything and 10 mins later he was sick all over it again. DS1 shouted me through both times as I was sound asleep and didn't hear anything. DS1 is a wee star he really is! Then DS2 was sick again just as we had to leave to take DS1 to school.
Now have him eating a slice of fruit loaf and a drink of juice, see if he will keep it down, if he does, we are going back to bed.
Remembered that DS1 had a virus a few weeks ago that lasted for 2 weeks. He was sick every night or morning, but at least he could go to the toilet! argggghhhhh!
Oh, and it's our wedding anniversary today. Hubby got me a card (well, got his mum to get one) but not sure if I will get out to get him one. Will make him steak pie to make up for it. We are supposed to be going out Friday if DS2 is better.
Oh and of course the car seat is broken. The buckle is sticking!0 -
Hiya
Just wanted to say a huge thankyou to all you lovely people for your advice last night. I was quite freaked out with being alone so it was good to talk to rational people. I've had both of the numbers blocked and if he phones from another number then i'll change mine.
I'm going to do my flying this afternoon as working this morning. So will update later.
Hugs to all xxJanuary budget
Nothing left!0 -

Dusty - good luck for exam
Thanks but I am only invigilating them - not taking them:rotfl:You are doing great with the breastfeeding - it can be tough - fed all 3 of mine for a year but it is so worth it.
LJD - hugs again hun
Tia - hope the little one gets better soon
Pigpen - we did a great game at our xmas fair last week. You stick a £5 to the underside of a fish tank. Fill tank with water. Players have to drop 20ps in and try to cover the queens nose - if they do they win a £5er. We had 6 kids win but still made £55 and they loved it. Some winning made it better as kids could see if could be done.
Pleased with my little self. Took DS3 to school as usual then cycled on to town to go to the bank and bakers and cycled back. Saved time, eco friendly and counts as exercise. Just having a current bun and a cuppa then off to invigilate - will do my list later when I am back.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
Tia get well wishes to your DS - I'll bet your fed up of all the puke lol
Congrats to those with anniversarys today :beer:
Gas mans here: I had to laugh, he was trying to talk to my face but my bosoms have obviously got this magical pull so he couldn't .... pity he's a grot!
Cracking on with the list slowly but surely I'm not in manic cleaning mode today like I usually am when I'm in the mood, think A Flo has something to do with it, I feel like I'm doing everything in slow motion....but....it's getting there :T0 -
tia-hope your LO feels better soon. How long have you been married for? I have been married for 9 years today.
LJD1 hope all is sorted with the phone now. Why are there so many ******s around.
Anyway struggling to get DS to tidy up before playschool :eek:January Grocery 11/3740
